Information for submissions:

• Your narrative must be original. It may not be published elsewhere in any form.
• Your submission must be a file created by any standard word-processor, such as Microsoft Word, Google Docs, WordPerfect, etc. or as plain text. Please do not include web formatting (HTML) with your story.
• Content should be as detailed as possible. Share your feelings, and include all the "local color" that other Bronxites will recognize. Use real names of places. We're looking for visual descriptions, narrations of memorable events, and the incorporation of as much Bronx-related material as possible.
• Your story may be fiction or non-fiction. Please indicate which it is.
• Avoid or minimize discussions of present issues, comparisons or circumstances. Keep your story in the past.
• Stories should be a minimum of 1,000 words in length. Longer, more substantial stories are preferred.
• A detailed narrative of an event, a person or a place is preferred over list-like collections of random memories. We also like insights into and analyses of past Bronx culture and ideas.
• Scanned photos (to accompany your narratives) are very welcome.
• We do not guarantee that your submission will be published. If your submission is accepted for publication:
  • It will be edited before publication. Editing may range from simple grammatical corrections to deletions, additions or restructuring of entire paragraphs.
  • Your name will be published in the "by line" unless you request anonymity.
  • You'll be notified by email as soon as it goes online.
  • Your published story becomes the property of SofTech Consulting, host and owner of The Bronx Board.
